This review is from: The Recession-Busting Guide To Making Money Online From Home (Paperback)
I bought this book because I was laid off recently and thought it would offer several simple ways to earn extra income. The book and all of the reviews made it seem like it would be a comprehensive guide to earning money online, so I bought the book. I should have really looked at who was reviewing the book. Several of the reviewers were featured "success stories" in his book, so really they did not give an unbiased opinion or review. The first couple of chapters into the book, it is really not much more than a wordy list. It did not leave me feeling any more informed that I was before buying the book. Many of the things described in the book I knew or could have found out from a free book from the library. Beyond that, most of the ways that he suggested to earn money online involved further extensive education and have volumes of books regarding each subject on how to do thme. One example would be, there is a chapter dedicated to writing SEO for webmasters. It made it sound so simple, but when I researched this further, you need to have a pretty heavy background on writing HTML and a fairly extensive knowledge of creating websites. There are many lengthy books and college courses regarding writing SEO. Many of the ideas require an extensive further education. It is apparent that the author has found a niche and is capitalizing on people's desparation in a recession.

Good start,
By Katiria "Katiria" (Hollywood ,FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Recession-Busting Guide To Making Money Online From Home (Paperback)
Let me start off by saying this book comes in real handy right about now!
It's a very easy read. The steps are clearly laid out for you. It even gives you legitimate websites that you can use to get started. I was taking notes the entire time and telling everyone about this because let's face it, we can all use the money. It doesn't explain exactly how to start up a 'business' because business plans are complicated and that requires an entirely different book. The laws in every state are different for licenses and depend on the type of business you want, but its told by people with experience and it's a good place to start. If you feel you've tried everything, I bet you'll be surprised with this book. It goes over how to make money in all areas such as blogging, crafts, fitness, even how to be a mortgage broker from home! The only thing I wished was that it had details on starting a business legally, but beggars can't be choosy. I applied for Alpine to work from home answering calls. I'm looking forward to working on my terms.

Weak, Vague and Poorly Written,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Recession-Busting Guide To Making Money Online From Home (Paperback)
This book is nothing more than a regurgitation of plain information you can read on the internet. Effectively it's the same thing- compiled in book form. Are there helpful tips inside? Perhaps, but the things you really need to know are not written here. Just a basic outline of some trends and possibilities. Very disappointing to see such glowing reviews for something obviously presented here to make money for the author. Buyer beware.
